Steam, Largest Digital Distributor of Video Games, Under Fire for Approving Uncensored Pornographic Video Game

Steam is coming under fire by a group against sexual exploitation for approving the first uncensored porn game on its platform, which adults and children have access to.

“Steam is willfully contributing to the cultural objectification of women with this game. It normalizes the idea that men have the right to control and abuse women according to their will, something that ought to be socially unacceptable particularly in this #MeToo era,” said in a statement Dawn Hawkins, Executive Director of the National Center on Sexual Exploitation.

“Negligee: Love Stories,” as the game is called, is set for release Friday on Steam, which is the world’s largest digital distributor for video games to children and adults.

The game is in the form of an anime visual novel, where players make decisions for their story characters, largely connected to their sexual activities.

Game Debate pointed out that “Negligee” features uncensored full nudity, graphic depictions of sex, and sexual dialogue.

The game itself comes with a warning of nudity and sexual interactions.

“Scenes within the game include illustrated and dialogue descriptions of male and female single partner sexual relationships, modelling, outdoor sexual activity, male and female multiple partner sexual activity and female and female single partner sexual relationships.”

Hawkins warned that the depiction of sexual harassment and abuse in the game is also very troublesome.
